Supercharger all the way on this car. Although the Avo stg 1 kit does look nice.

i think people are kinda stuck in the past. turbo chargers have evolved a lot faster than superchargers. it seems they always turbos are just more effecient and the throttle response of a properly tuned system is negligible. well thats what i thought until i saw what rotrex is doing.

id rather have two frs with a turbo and supercharger on each. both with more reliability,power and tq than the na car. well exaggerating a bit but n/a isnt cheaper alternative anymore. thats not even mentioning that the car with an 11k redline is going to be useless anywhere but a racetrack (and a fast one at that)

Your best bet is to do a google search for port and polish motor. Will give you the best knowledge on it.

Not interested in a turbo or SC.

For the amount of money it takes to install and support such setup, I can get a bike that in stock form smokes 99% of all street legal cars and is way more fun to drive than four wheels..

Having owned a turbocharged car i personally feel like this car wasnt meant to be turboed. That being said my future plans include a supercharger, tho unlikely itll be TRD
